Spontaneous symmetry breaking in cosmos: the hybrid symmetron as a dark energy switching device

Journal Article Bamba, K. ; Nojiri, S. ; Gannouji, R. ; ... - Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics

We consider symmetron model in a generalized background with a hope to make it compatible with dark energy. We observe a ''no go'' theorem at least in case of a conformal coupling. Being convinced of symmetron incapability to be dark energy, we try to retain its role for spontaneous symmetry breaking and assign the role of dark energy either to standard quintessence or F(R) theory which are switched on by symmetron field in the symmetry broken phase. The scenario reduces to standard Einstein gravity in the high density region. After the phase transition generated by symmetron field, either the F(R)more »« less

ENVIRONMENT DEPENDENCE OF DARK MATTER HALOS IN SYMMETRON MODIFIED GRAVITY

Journal Article Winther, Hans A. ; Mota, David F. ; Baojiu, Li - Astrophysical Journal

We investigate the environment dependence of dark matter halos in the symmetron modified gravity scenario. The symmetron is one of three known mechanisms for screening a fifth force and thereby recovering general relativity in dense environments. The effectiveness of the screening depends on both the mass of the object and the environment it lies in. Using high-resolution N-body simulations we find a significant difference, which depends on the halo's mass and environment, between the lensing and dynamical masses of dark matter halos similar to the f(R) modified gravity. The symmetron can however yield stronger signatures due to a freedom inmore » the strength of coupling to matter.« less

Results from the XENON10 Dark Matter search experiment at Gran Sasso Laboratories

Journal Article Ferella, Alfredo Davide - AIP Conference Proceedings

One of the most appealing questions in astroparticle physics concerns the nature of the Dark Matter (DM) particles and their possible interaction with ordinary matter. In order to find a solution to such problem, a double phase liquid-gas Xenon Time Projection Chamber has been proposed and built as a suitable detector for the direct detection of DM in the form of Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs). The possibility of simultaneously measuring the scintillation and the ionization signals, and a 3D event localization feature, represent a powerful background discrimination method. During the Autumn-Winter 2006-2007 a prototype of 15 kg sensitive massmore »« less

First results from the DarkSide-50 dark matter experiment at Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso

Journal Article Agnes, P. ; Alexander, T. ; Alton, A. ; ... - Physics Letters B

We report the first results of DarkSide-50, a direct search for dark matter operating in the underground Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso (LNGS) and searching for the rare nuclear recoils possibly induced by weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs). The dark matter detector is a Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber with a (46.4±0.7) kg active mass, operated inside a 30 t organic liquid scintillator neutron veto, which is in turn installed at the center of a 1 kt water Cherenkov veto for the residual flux of cosmic rays. We report here the null results of a dark matter search for amore »« less

First Results from the XENON10 Dark Matter Experiment at the Gran Sasso National Laboratory

Journal Article Angle, J ; Manalaysay, A ; Department of Physics, RWTH Aachen University, Aachen, 52074 ; ... - Physical Review Letters

The XENON10 experiment at the Gran Sasso National Laboratory uses a 15 kg xenon dual phase time projection chamber to search for dark matter weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs). The detector measures simultaneously the scintillation and the ionization produced by radiation in pure liquid xenon to discriminate signal from background down to 4.5 keV nuclear-recoil energy. A blind analysis of 58.6 live days of data, acquired between October 6, 2006, and February 14, 2007, and using a fiducial mass of 5.4 kg, excludes previously unexplored parameter space, setting a new 90% C.L. upper limit for the WIMP-nucleon spin-independent cross sectionmore »« less
